my love2d is broken

[bigbruhh0]

hello everyone, for half a week I can't solve this problem, my love2d just freezes when I start the game, or even just the program itself without a project, tried to install version 11.4 as advised by slime from the forum, tried to restore the system to roll back some changes, nothing Does not help

I have suspicions that this happened due to the fact that I launched Corona SDK recently, it was on this day that it all started

can someone help me with this? ready to throw off any data so that they can understand what the problem is, if possible

Could you reproduce it by using empty main.lua then disabling joystick, graphics, and window module at conf.lua? Afterwards try to enable those modules one by one.

Also please try the no-game (running love.exe/lovec.exe directly)

[bigbruhh0]

so, I tried to disable modules as you said:

everything is disabled - nothing happens at startup turned on only the joystick - nothing happens turned on only graphics - nothing happens turned on only the window - a white window appeared (I can move the window itself, which means the application does not freeze) turned on all three - everything works without failure, no freezes

I have already tried to run love2d without a game, every time it freezes

And i checked something else

I wrote the following code in main.lua:

function love.load()
p={}
p.x=1
p.y=1
end

function love.update()
	p.x=p.x+1
	print(p.x)
end

function love.draw()
	--love.graphics.print("zzz",p.x,p.y)
	p.y=p.y+1
	print("       "..p.y)
end

everything works fine without drawing when i want to draw something the game freezes

Sharing the output of print(love.graphics.getRendererInfo()) might help to narrow this down. You could also make sure your graphics drivers are as up to date as possible.

Setting the environment variable LOVE_GRAPHICS_USE_GL2=1 before launching love might also work around the driver bug for now.

Wow,that works fine print(love.graphics.getRendererInfo()) printing this: OpenGL 4.0.0 - Build 10.18.10.4276 Intel Intel(R) HD Graphics

Setting the env. variable helped me. So what was the problem? in the drivers of the device itself?

[bigbruhh0]

Thank you so much :3

Build 10.18.10.4276 Intel Intel(R) HD Graphics

Based on some other info I found online to compare to, that version number isn't the latest possible one for that GPU on Windows, so it's possible a graphics driver update could fix the problem for you.

I think this page has the latest graphics driver that works for your model of GPU, if you want to try updating: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29969/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-33-

I believe it's a bug in the specific version of the graphics drivers you have for your GPU yeah - I think it's waiting for a glClientWaitSync call to complete (that codepath in love only gets run when using OpenGL 3+), but the driver never signals that it's done so it just hangs forever.

[slime73]

I'm assuming a graphics driver update might've fixed this for you (aside from manually forcing love to use OpenGL 2 codepaths), but let me know if it hasn't.
